Inspecting Car Belts and Hoses
A routine check under your hood can catch minor issues before they cause a pricey breakdown.
Your coolant hoses are flexible tubes that supply a pliable connection for coolant flow between the radiator, engine, and heating block. Microscopic cracks can form on the inside, damage the hose, and cause an overheated engine. If your vehicle is continually low on coolant, you may have a problem with your radiator hose. To know if repairs are needed, have your vehicle hoses inspected twice a year.
